Hi Aaron, Really sorry for the late reply... I was busy with my mid-term tests for the last couple of weeks so couldn't reply...
Well, to describe my background in abstract algebra... I have done a course on 'Real Analysis' which basically dealt with the concept of Metric Spaces and their detailed applications on sequences and series. I am currently doing a course on 'Functional Analysis' which discusses the completeness of Metric Spaces and links them to Vector Spaces. Alongside, I have also been studying discrete algebra for the previous two semesters and have considerable knowledge about Group Theory and its extension to Rings and Fields and Vector Spaces. I found this to be really interesting and I was wondering if this concept can be inculcated into Sympy. Hoping to hear from you...
